    Trump again winning the electoral vote but losing the popular vote would be the second funniest outcome, the first one being Biden winning the electoral vote but losing the popular vote. Both options are still very possible.

      The entire electoral vote system is set up to give unfair influence to less populated areas.

      Unless Trump starts running up numbers in cities and Biden suddenly starts winning the rural communities that have a fuck Joe Biden flag flying over the town hall no way Biden wins the electoral but looses the popular.

      Dems have to beat Republicans by about 3 to 5% across the board to break even on the EC advantage.

      There is a chance though that Biden loses both which would at least be funny to watch libs try to reconcile the fact that turns out people were being honest when they told them “fuck that geriatric piece of shit” everytime they’ve mentioned voting for Biden for the last 3 years.

    This Most Important Election of Our Lives (including for us not in the US apparently) will have record low voter turnout and will probably be an absolute landslide victory for Trump, thanks to the electoral college.
